• Documentation & Reporting: Clearly document testing expectations, results, and recommendations in reports for both internal teams and external partners.

• Strong time management skills with the ability to handle multiple testing activities and projects simultaneously.
• Eagerness to learn and operate new lab equipment and technologies to support product testing.
• A deep understanding of statistical methods and data analysis to interpret test results and identify trends.
